Obtain the names of all nodes

Returns the names of all quantities stored in a mcmc.list object.

get_params(post, type = "base_only")

Arguments

post	A mcmc.list object.
type	Format of returned matches; only two options are accepted: type = "base_only" (the default) to return only the unique node names (without indices). type = "base_index" to return the node names with indices included.

Value

A character vector with all node names stored in the post object, formatted as requested by type.

Examples

 # load example mcmc.list
data(cjs)

# get only node names, no indices (default)
get_params(cjs, type = "base_only")
#> [1] "B0"     "sig_B0" "B1"     "sig_B1" "b0"     "b1"     "SIG"    "p"     

# get indices too, where applicable
get_params(cjs, type = "base_index")
#>  [1] "B0"       "sig_B0"   "B1"       "sig_B1"   "b0[1]"    "b0[2]"   
#>  [7] "b0[3]"    "b0[4]"    "b0[5]"    "b1[1]"    "b1[2]"    "b1[3]"   
#> [13] "b1[4]"    "b1[5]"    "SIG[1,1]" "SIG[2,1]" "SIG[1,2]" "SIG[2,2]"
#> [19] "p[2]"     "p[3]"     "p[4]"
